Nebras

Oh my 😋 I just got this today and I am so impressed by Lataffa's luxurious packaging. I'm also impressed with the gorgeous bottles and the heavy durable feel of them. I'm also impressed that the boxes have a QR code that you can scan on the back to make sure that the perfume is legitimate and not a dupe. Reading some of the bad reviews makes me think that some people that bought this perfume or getting fakes so be careful and scan the QR code for legitimacy. The smell of this fragrance is absolutely delicious and scrumptious. It smells like🍦 real vanilla bean ice cream with 🍫 drizzled chocolate sauce and caramel sauce 🍮on top with airy marshmallow fluff. I get a little bit of orange 🍊 which makes it smell juicy. It reminds me of "Terry's Chocolate Oranges. " It's absolutely delightful. It's not really strong which I love. I like this better than Bianca Latte and Eclair because this does not have a rubber chemical smell that there's others seem to have. I could feel a little bit of oiliness on my skin from the essential oils used to make it once I apply it which means it's very high quality. Lataffa is winning me over one perfume at a time. My mind is blown. I will be buying more Lattaffa perfumes definitely. 🍦🍫🍮🍦🍫🍮🍦🍫🍮 The notes - Red berry in perfumery smells vibrant, sweet, and tart, mimicking fruits like raspberries, strawberries, 🍓 and cranberries. It adds a juicy, playful, and slightly sharp fruitiness to fragrances, often used to brighten up gourmand, floral, or woodsy scents.🪵 In perfumery🍊, mandarin orange smells bright, sweet, and juicy, with a lighter, more floral and honeyed aroma than a standard orange. It often has a subtle, tangy sharpness that adds a cheerful, refreshing quality to top notes. In perfumery,🍦 vanilla smells warm, cozy, and sweet, but its profile varies depending on whether it's natural or synthetic: Natural Vanilla (Absolute): Rich, deep, and complex, featuring dark woody, balsamic, and slightly smoky or boozy undertones. Synthetic Vanilla (Vanillin/Ethyl Vanillin): Sweet, creamy, and reminiscent of baking extract, sugar, or ice cream. It is a versatile base note that adds comfort, warmth, and longevity to gourmand, oriental, and floral fragrances. In perfumery,🍫 cacao smells deep, rich, and bittersweet, mimicking dark chocolate rather than sugary milk chocolate. It often carries earthy, dusty, and slightly woody undertones, adding a warm, sophisticated sensuality to gourmand and oriental fragrances. In perfumery, a 🌹 rose note can vary dramatically depending on the variety and extraction method, but it generally falls into two primary profiles: Damask Rose (Rosa damascena): Deep, rich, velvety, and intensely romantic, often carrying spicy, honeyed, or wine-like undertones. Centifolia Rose (Rosa centifolia): Clean, light, and luminous, featuring a clear, sweet, and slightly green or lemony freshness often described as "dewy." Overall, perfumers use rose to add a multifaceted complexity that can range from fresh, green, and powdery to dark, jammy, and sensual. In perfumery, raw sugar doesn't have a strong scent, so the note is usually created synthetically to smell like sweet, warm, and comforting caramelized or spun sugar (like cotton candy). It adds a mouth-watering, gourmand quality to fragrances without the heavy, burnt undertones of vanilla or amber. Tonka bean has a rich, warm scent primarily resembling sweet🍦 vanilla, almond, and coumarin. It also features subtle notes of dark honey, tobacco, and fresh-mown hay, adding a powdery complexity to fragrance bases. In perfumery, amber is a warm, sweet, and cozy note that smells like a blend of vanilla, powdery resins, and rich 🪵 woods. Because it isn't a natural ingredient harvested from actual amber stones, perfumers create this "fantasy note" using a combination of labdanum, benzoin, and 🍦vanilla to evoke a golden, comforting warmth. In perfumery, musk smells clean, warm, and skin-like. While natural musk originally had an intense, earthy, and animalic scent, modern synthetic musks range from soft, powdery, and laundry-fresh to subtle, sensual warmth that helps fix and balance other fragrance notes.

Liquid cocaine in a bottle. Okay. So I've wanted this one for a long time now but it's been out of stock everywhere. I managed to score a 20ml travel version and my god, I was blown. This is definitely not unisex. It's feminine. I don't wear feminine frags AT ALL, but this has me on my knees since the first spray. The analogy of cake is a bottle is as accurate as it can get. You can individually smell almost every single note and they blend so beautifully! Right from the top, I get that uplifting zesty orange. While it does not add to the overall fragrance, it makes the opening so airy and light, allowing time for the heavier notes to sink in. That, to me, is pure art right there. While the vanilla is forward from the very first spray, after a while, the rose comes out along with the cacao. Although it's not chocolaty as I'd expected it to be. More like white chocolate (similar to a Nestle Milky Bar we get in India). That sweet gourmand concoction stays for a really long time and projects! The dry down is soft, slightly powdered sugar vibes with a hint of amber. The tonka is not felt as much since the vanilla stays on a front foot. Despite being SWEET, it's not cloying at all. It has an enigmatic brightness and airiness. Such a beautifully done uplifting gourmand fragrance overall. The Pride tag absolutely does it justice. Oh also, bonus points for this Lattafa not having that skanky alcohol blast in the opening. Definitely going to pick up the whole bottle. A solid 9/10 here. Only limitation is the seasonal and gender restrictive usage but you do you sis, who TF cares. This is not gonna go with my masc personality but imma rock this shit like nobody's business.

This has been my happiest blind buy in years! I have been hesitant to test out Middle Eastern perfumes, because I kept seeing comments about having to let them "macerate," and I don't have time for that! Maybe I got lucky, or maybe that's just a rumor, because my Nebras has been perfect from the start. It checks all my perfume boxes: (1) Unique (for my collection) - Opens with the red berries, with the cocoa-vanilla underneath, as many have mentioned, it has this aromatic minty smell at the open, which I love! Makes it special and different. I do not smell any florals/rose (thankfully, rose is not my favorite note). (2) Takes you on a scent journey - This is not a linear scent, you truly have the opportunity to smell each layer of the fragrance as you wear it. (3) Longevity - This lasts all day! You can overspray this one, so I would say start moderate before you add too much. (4) Sillage - Moderate to large sillage, I actually got a compliment on this from a stranger, which is the first time ever in my life! I like to layer with Cocoa Cashmere from EOS, Vanilla Bourbon from BBW, or Ellis Brooklyn Marshmallows. If I had to choose one negative - It is a heavier, denser scent, so maybe not appropriate all year round, especially in warmer weather. But if you catch me wearing Nebras in the summer...oh well! I love it! As for the"dupe situation" - I've tried Billie Eilish #1 in the store, and I think it's pretty close to that, but lasts longer. I've tried Finer'y Sweet on the Outside in a sample set and Nebras blows it out of the water! Sweet on the Outside was just a faint cocoa-vanilla, no uniqueness or depth like Nebras.

This is my second review. I really am in love with this perfume. I love Eilish 1 too, but when comparing them both, to me Nebras is clearly a winner. Smells VERY similar, if not smoother, and the longevity is much better. For better price. I think that people who are hating on this perfume, must be hating the whole concept and not just Nebras, because you really cannot tell these two apart, unless they interact with your skin chemistry differently (or if you got a new batch and it still needs maceration). Totally understandable though that this composition is either love or hate, because of this unique note that smells like mint or anise. This can be off-putting for some, but for me, it certainly gives it a special charm and overall more 'air' and coldness to the sweet cozy base <3 My association with this perfume is drinking hot cocoa outside, on a snowy winter day when the air smells like cold, and there's some Christmas market nearby from where you can get a whiff of herbs and berry-based drinks. So yeah, I've had Eilish for quite a few years, and now that I ran out, I got Nebras instead and have zero regrets. Both are very comforting! BUT, they're a bit 'out there', so don't expect it to smell like photorealistic cookies or brownies. It's still delicious and has distinct vanilla/choco notes, but most likely not in the way you'd expect. So NEITHER of these are a safe blind buy.

This was one of my first real loves when it comes to Arab fragrances, and I’ve honestly bought it more times than I should’ve—like five or six bottles since 2023! It’s sweet, but not in that heavy, sticky way. The cocoa, vanilla, and sugar notes blend perfectly, but the cocoa definitely steals the show for me (and I love that!). I loved it right from the start! Some people say they had to let it sit because of the "mint" note, but I didn’t get that at all—it was amazing straight out of the box. I wear this to most places; it’s my total comfort scent. A few people (including my partner) even say it’s my scent—the one that reminds them of me—and honestly, I love that. I even have a little routine depending on whether I want to bring out the cocoa or vanilla side more. Now that I own Eilish No. 1, I can confidently say Nebras is smoother, richer, and lasts so much longer. I have to overspray Eilish just to keep up—and considering the price difference, that hurts a bit. Nebras, on the other hand, is amazing value for money, and the bottle is adorable—it looks so cute on my vanity. I’ll keep Eilish for the bottle (it’s definitely provocative and gorgeous), but Nebras is the one I actually reach for every time.
